President Trump Takes the Gloves Off, Asks the Court to Hold Jack Smith in Contempt

Gateway Pundit
President Trump’s attorneys on Thursday asked the Court to hold Special Counsel Jack Smith in contempt for violating Judge Chutkan’s order staying all proceedings in the January 6 case against Trump.
“President Donald J. Trump respectfully moves this Court for an order to show cause why prosecutors Jack Smith, Molly Gaston, and Thomas Windom (collectively, the “prosecutors”) should not be held in contempt for violating the Court’s order “stay[ing] any further proceedings that would move this case towards trial or impose additional burdens of litigation on Defendant.” Doc. 186 at 2 (the “Stay Order”).” Trump’s lawyer wrote in the order reviewed by The Gateway Pundit.
“The Stay Order is clear, straightforward, and unambiguous. All substantive proceedings in this Court are halted. Despite this clarity, the prosecutors began violating the Stay almost immediately. First, within five days of the Court entering the Stay Order, the prosecutors served thousands of pages of additional discovery, together with a purported draft exhibit list. Through counsel, President Trump advised that he rejected the prosecutors’ unlawful productions, that their actions violated the Stay Order, and that he would seek relief if their malicious conduct continued.” Trump’s lawyer Todd Blanche wrote.
Last month Obama-appointed Judge Tanya Chutkan paused Trump’s January 6 case in DC amid a dispute over the former president’s immunity argument.

MSNBC's Ari Melber was reading a brief today from the DOJ, the vid is being played on Real America's Voice. The DOJ is stating Trump must be found guilty of some type of felony to keep him from occupying the White House again, the DOJ claims if Trump is not found guilty of insurrection or some othe felonious crime then Trump could win the presidency and order the execution of his political adversaries.

Wouldn’t that be something if there were some people found guilty of treason and they had to beg President Trump for a stay of execution.

He just wants to drag out the inevitable, that’s his MO in all legal proceedings. Delay, deny, delay some more.

What has he ever been convicted of?

If only we could be so lucky.
Even though this is what the progressive left is trying to do now.

I didn’t say he was ever convicted of anything. But it’s a well known fact that the beta cuck likes to delay all things court related. It’s well documented in all of his civil cases.

A tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
He’s like a dog barking at the fence. Always loud; never accomplishes anything.

Was there a stay issued? Did the prosecution ignore the stay?
Two very simple questions even someone with your limited intellect can answer. Give it a try.

I notice you skipped over the substance of the OP
Did Jack Smith violate the judges stay or not?

I couldn't support this, but the country would be better off.

I really hope Trump can use this to attack the fraudulent persecution by these commie criminals.
18 U.S.C. § 242
Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law
https://www.justice.gov/crt/statutes-enforced-criminal-section#:~:text=18%20U.S.C.%20%C2%A7%20242&text=This%20provision%20makes%20it%20a,laws%20of%20the%20United%20States.
18 U.S.C. § 242
Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law
quote:
This provision makes it a crime for someone acting under color of law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. It is not necessary that the offense be motivated by racial bias or by any other animus.
Defendants act under color of law when they wield power vested by a government entity. Those prosecuted under the statute typically include police officers, sheriff’s deputies, and prison guards. However other government actors, such as judges, district attorneys, other public officials, and public school employees can also act under color of law and can be prosecuted under this statute.
Section 242 does not criminalize any particular type of abusive conduct. Instead, it incorporates by reference rights defined by the Constitution, federal statutes, and interpretive case law. Cases charged by federal prosecutors most often involve physical or sexual assaults. The Department has also prosecuted public officials for thefts, false arrests, evidence-planting, and failing to protect someone in custody from constitutional violations committed by others.
A violation of the statute is a misdemeanor, unless prosecutors prove one of the statutory aggravating factors such as a bodily injury, use of a dangerous weapon, kidnapping, aggravated sexual abuse, death resulting, or attempt to kill, in which case there are graduated penalties up to and including life in prison or death. If charged in conjunction with 18 U.S.C. § 250, as noted below, all sexual assaults under color of law are felonies.

How dare you quote Shakespeare?

So let me rephrase the DemCommie argument.
“If we don’t keep America First Trump out of office we’ll actually be held accountable for our treasonous crimes!”

What, exactly is "the inevitable"?

Illegally using funds from his charity the Trump foundation. He was ordered to pay 2 million dollars in restitution to other charities
FYI if you think that Trump is some poor victim here you would be in prison if you did the same thing
